I have been accepted!

That's right, I have officially been accepted into the blogging world. I was tagged! Now I know I really belong. It's like getting asked to sit at the cool kids' lunch table in middle school (as my high school never had a cool table). So heeeeerre we gooooo...

*How did you meet your man? At an LDS church singles dance. We are the ultimate Mormon cliche.
*What is his name? Brandon
*How long did you date? For 2 months, then we quit seeing each other for a year, then we dated an additional 5 months and had a quick 2 month engagement.
*How long have you been married? 8 years and counting
*Who is taller? He is
*Who eats more? Now that depends on what we're eating. Vegetables - that would be Brandon. Greasy, fatty foods - ME! (No wonder we're the rhyme "Jack Sprat" personified. Just kidding, I hope I'm not that bad)
*Who is the better singer? I always said I would marry someone who sings. (Ditto Melissa) Not that's it's saying much in this case, but I am most definitely the better singer. (No offense babe)
*Who does the laundry? Me, and I'm really weird about it. It's the one household chore I can't stand anyone else to do or even help me with. I'm very particular and for some reason it makes me crazy if he tries to help me with it.
*Who pays the bills? I do, Brandon has an anxiety attack anytime he's confronted with our disturbing financial situation.
*Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? I do
*Who mows the lawn? He does. I've never mowed a lawn in my life and I am very intimidated by the whole process.
*Who cooks dinner? Papa Johns...and various Mexican food restaurants. Ok, if we MUST eat at home, I usually cook. Unless it's the all-time manly art of barbecuing.
*Who drives? Brandon. I am a very self-conscious driver and like to avoid it any chance I can.
*Who is more stubborn? HE IS! (And there is NO WAY you are going to convince me otherwise!) **I loved Melissa's answer on this one so much, I'm totally stealing it.
*Who kissed who first? Honestly, I'm not sure. We were laying on a bed (this sounds bad...) in complete darkness and it just kinda happened. Don't worry, we weren't on the bed alone. Eric and Bri were with us (now it really sounds bad) Totally innocent, I assure you.
*Who asked who out? He asked me out, once we finally cleared up which Brandon was calling me.
*Who proposed? He did. On the Millennium New Year's Eve, at the top of the Joseph Smith Memorial Building, overlooking the Salt Lake Temple. Awww...our story should be featured in some sort of Hallmark television special.
*Who is more sensitive? I am. Though looking at the absolutely ridiculous things that make me cry (at least once a day) I'm afraid that's not hard to do.
*Who has more siblings? It depends on how you look at it. We both have quite the interesting conglomeration of siblings. Overall, my 7 siblings beats his 4.
*Who wears the pants? That's a hard one, but I think it would mostly be me. Only because I do take care of all the finances, and Brandon always likes to have his ideas acknowledged before following through with them.

Ta-da! That's it! I now tag: Ameila, Julie, Katie, and VerNeita. Welcome to the cool lunch table girls! (Though I'm not sure if some of you already sit there...)

You crack me up! It reminds me of that time when Sally Field won an award and said, "You like me! You really, really like me!"

Shucks... I'm still not cool enough to be at the cool lunch table. *sigh* It's ok. I guess when I actually take the time to make a real blog then I'll hope to be cool. BTW, I'm finally checking this at home and LOVING your music selection! It makes me smile... see? =)
